Yoenis Cespedes (hamstring) has been ruled out for the season.

The Mets say that Cespedes' right hamstring strain is a six-week injury, which is obviously an issue given that there are five weeks remaining in the season. It ends an up-and-down 2017 campaign for the 31-year-old slugger, as he hit a healthy .292/.352/.540 but was limited to 81 games due to numerous leg issues. Aug 28 - 7:54 PM

Mets placed OF Yoenis Cespedes on the 10-day DL with a right hamstring strain.

While Cespedes sounds intent on returning this season, there's a chance that the injury could force him to miss the final six weeks. Aug 26 - 11:16 AM

Mets' general manager Sandy Alderson confirmed after Friday's game that Yoenis Cespedes will be placed on the disabled list.

The hamstring injury is believed to be as severe as the one that cost him six weeks earlier in the season. Given the fact that the Mets aren't in contention for a playoff spot, it may be wise to simply shut Cespedes down for the remainder of the season. Aug 25 - 10:36 PM

Yoenis Cespedes was removed from Friday's contest against the Nationals after suffering a right hamstring strain.

Given how the injury looked, it's probably good news that it's just a recurrence of his hamstring strain. It's unclear if he'll require a trip to the disabled list, or if it's something that a few days of rest will take care of. Aug 25 - 8:47 PM

Wilmer Flores (nose) has been ruled out for the remainder of the season.

Flores suffered a bad broken nose last Saturday when he fouled a ball off his face. The 26-year-old infielder finishes the 2017 season with a .271/.307/.488 batting line, 18 home runs, and 52 RBI in 110 games. He'll be arbitration-eligible this winter for the second time.

David Wright will undergo surgery in New York on Tuesday to repair his right rotator cuff.

Just the latest in a brutal string of injuries for Wright. The 34-year-old attempted a minor league rehab assignment late last month, but he was quickly shut down with shoulder pain. He's been limited to just 75 games over the past three seasons and it's increasingly likely that his playing career could be over.

The Mets say that Cespedes' right hamstring strain is a six-week injury, which is obviously an issue given that there are five weeks remaining in the season. It ends an up-and-down 2017 campaign for the 31-year-old slugger, as he hit a healthy .292/.352/.540 but was limited to 81 games due to numerous leg issues.

Michael Conforto underwent surgery Wednesday in Los Angeles to repair a tear of the posterior capsule in his left shoulder.

Conforto suffered the season-ending shoulder injury August 24 on an awkward swing-and-miss. He should be ready for the start of the 2018 campaign and the 24-year-old outfielder will be a highly-sought-after fantasy commodity after batting .279/.384/.555 with 27 home runs and 68 RBI in 109 games this season.

A.J. Ramos will be unavailable on Tuesday night due to right biceps tendinitis.

And he could be done for the season with only six games remaining for the out-of-contention Mets. Ramos, acquired from the Marlins in late July, will be eligible for salary arbitration this winter after earning $6.55 million in 2017.
